Creating navigation push buttons

Use the Navigation Button tool to create a button that an operator can use to create buttons
that navigate between the opened graphic displays.

A navigation push button can perform three types of actions:

DisplayPreviousScreen opens the previous graphic display in the navigation history
when the button is clicked.

DisplayNextScreen opens the next graphic display in the navigation history when the
button is clicked.

DisplayNavigationHistory shows a list of previously opened screens when the button
is clicked.

Setting up navigation push button properties

In the Navigation Push Button Properties dialog box:

In the General tab, specify the general appearance of the button, the action the button
performs, and whether an audio signal is produced when it is pressed.

In the Active Appearance tab, set up the appearance for a navigation button when it
is active.
